We will contact you after the auction has finished to make these arrangements.
Pre-auction offers
These must be made in writing and will only be considered if the Legal Pack has been inspected and proof of funding has been supplied to the auctioneers. Pre-auction offers are only considered on an auction basis in accordance with the “Terms & Conditions - Unconditional Auction".
Mortgage finance
We advise all bidders who require a mortgage to confirm with their Financial Advisor as to whether or not the lot you are interested in would be suitable security to borrow finance against, prior to bidding. If you need to arrange a mortgage it is important that you obtain an offer from your lender before the day of the auction. Most building societies and banks will instruct a surveyor to prepare a valuation report before making a mortgage offer.
